Q2. Write an assembly language program to print all letters as follows:

AB.........YZ

Note: To print a character on the screen you have to use the int 21h with the
service 2, the character to be printed have to be in dl. For Example, the
following code print A on the screen.

Answer:
dosseg
.model small
.stack 100h
.data
.code
main proc

mov ah,2 ; Writting it only once because it will be stored (2 in ah) for whole program unless changed

mov dl,'A'
int 21h

mov dl,'B'
int 21h

mov dl,'C'
int 21h

mov dl,'D'
